Influence of biomass burning on wintertime fine particulate matter: Source contribution at a valley site in rural British Columbia

Particulate matter (PM) speciation data were collected between November 2004 and August 2006 in the rural valley area of British Columbia, Canada. Source apportionment of PM was performed using a receptor model, positive matrix factorization (PMF), to identify possible sources of PM and determine th...

Zusammenfassung:Particulate matter (PM) speciation data were collected between November 2004 and August 2006 in the rural valley area of British Columbia, Canada. Source apportionment of PM was performed using a receptor model, positive matrix factorization (PMF), to identify possible sources of PM and determine the influence of each identified source on local air quality. High concentrations of PM2.5 (
